The Founder's sentencing (for "crimes committed against sentient beings") occurred on stardate 56867.84, after which she was permanently returned to Ananke Alpha. (STOwebsite: The Path to 2409)

By 2409, she had been moved to Facility 4028. In that year, the Dominion was able to negotiate her release, in exchange for helping to remove the Jem'Hadar that had taken over Deep Space 9. During her release, there was a Jem'Hadar attack on the facility, which caused the prisoners to be released. The founder helped subdue her fellow prisoners.
